The 2011 Louisiana Conference on Sexual and Domestic Violence, themed on a concept developed by the Pennsylvania Coalition Against Rape, will be an exciting three days of workshops, plenary sessions, exhibits and networking opportunities. A committee of representatives from the agencies co-sponsoring the conference, each of which deal with sexual assault issues in some capacity, have designed a program that will be valuable for law enforcement officers, prosecutors, judges, nurses and physicians, emergency medical personnel, crime lab staff, child advocates, child and adult protection staff, advocates, counselors, therapists, prevention educators, probation and parole officers, corrections officers, and sex offender treatment providers, as well as other professionals. National and local experts will lead the discussions and present important information to all conference attendees. We hope it will be an invaluable educational experience to all who serve the victims of and seek to bring perpetrators of sexual assault to justice.
